I bought a car in great working condition, just needs some exterior body work.

it has the s15 conversion currently set up with a stock motor

question is, am i better off building the whole car, or making it a stock s14.5?

will the value, and appeal to people be better?

after the main decision if i decide to build or not ill post pics of my progress in the build section and eventually it will be up for sale

If you're planning to sell it anyway, sell it now. Every dollar you put in it now is that much more money you won't get back when you sell it.

Sell the s15 conversion, get stock front, sell it as stock. Don't put any money into it or you're better off keeping it

This.
Make sure that everything is stock, you'll get the most money that way.
FYI I paid about 9.5k for mine 3 years ago with 28k miles on it
But it was 100% stock and nearly flawless.

I would put the s14 front bumper back to completely make it stock but it already has the s15 core supoort on it. So I'm just going to make everything else s14 stock there's no rust and the interior is perfect
